For a little more drama I choose to animate my Box ART modification. The animation was created using a very old version of JASC Software's, Animation Shop 3. Which is to say in a somewhat less loftier fashion the application is simply an GIF file animator.

Nevertheless if 'lofty' is what you want then look to Blender a open source (free) animation creator and here is thedownload page. In the words of the software developer "Blender is the free open source 3D content creation suite, available under the GNU General Public License" I believe this application is simply the most feature rich animation creator which can be had for free!
